Chapter 450 Smelling the scent of a big melon

Work day and night and gallop as fast as possible.

Everyone finally rushed back before Mrs. Tao died.

"Rong'er, is Yinyin back?" Mrs. Tao on the bed struggled excitedly.

"Yes, mother, I brought Yin Yin back." Tao Rong held back his tears and brought Tu Susu in from behind.

Lu Li had carefully considered the decision to have Tu Susu play Tao Yinyin.

Tu Susu has the power of healing. Although Mrs. Tao is already terminally ill and beyond help, she can still make her pass more comfortably.

The golden light in Fengqi's palm fell into Mrs. Tao's eyes like a feather.

Tu Susu also held Mrs. Tao's hand: "Mom, I'm Yin Yin, I'm back."

Mrs. Tao's originally gray face miraculously regained its rosy color at this moment, and she looked like a healthy old woman.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." She held Tu Susu's hand, with an unstoppable smile on her face.

"Is your son-in-law nice to you?"

"Okay, everything is fine." Looking at Mrs. Tao, Tu Susu thought of her grandmother, and her tone unconsciously became gentler.

"That's good." Mrs. Tao showed a relieved smile on her face.

"Where are Dan'er and Huan'er? Why didn't they come over? As their grandmother, I miss them too."

Without waiting for Tu Susu's answer, she said to herself, "Forget it. I'd better not let them see me like this."

She reached out and touched her face, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Mom is pretty now too." Tu Susu answered seriously.

When Mrs. Tao saw her daughter acting coquettishly towards her, the smile on her face became even brighter.

She held Tu Susu's hand and talked a lot.

Her voice became weaker and weaker, and she used all her strength to hold Tao Rong, who was crying and had red eyes.

"Rong'er, you are the older brother, you have to take care of your younger sister and don't allow anyone to bully her, do you understand?"

"Mom, I know. I will take good care of Yinyin for the rest of my life." Tao Rong replied with a sob.

Mrs. Tao showed a relieved smile on her face. The hand that was tightly holding Tao Rong lost its strength and fell to the bed in an instant.

Tao Rong was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head blankly to look at his mother on the bed.

The face that was just rosy turned pale in an instant.

She had a smile on her face, as if she was asleep and having a sweet dream.

"Mom——!" Tao Rong could no longer control himself. He fell to the side of the bed and cried bitterly.

Tu Susu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up gently and walked out.

Leave this small piece of world for the mother and son to be alone.

"Let's go."

After the work was done, Lu Li ordered them to leave.

Tao Rong's mother's last wish has been fulfilled.

Next, the Tao family will have to take care of Mrs. Tao’s funeral.

As outsiders, there was no need for them to stay and cause trouble for the host family.

"yes."

Naturally, no one would go against Lu Li's wishes and quietly left the Tao family.

When Tao Rong recovered from the grief of losing his mother and wanted to thank Lu Li, he found that they were gone.

"It is the people's fortune to have this princess." Tao Rong murmured to himself and bowed deeply in the direction of the capital.

…

After leaving the Tao family, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit depressing.

It was the first time for Lu Can to encounter such a scene of separation from his loved ones, and he felt very uncomfortable.

If one day comes, he will send his mother away.

He might be more sad than Tao Rong.

"Fourth brother, do you want to eat roasted whole lamb?" Lu Xuan on the side broke the silent atmosphere.

Without waiting for his answer, Lu Xuan said excitedly, "The roasted whole lamb in Beiyong is delicious. My ninth sister and I ate it together more than ten years ago. Oh, you were not there at that time, so you definitely don't know."

Lu Can was instantly furious.

"That's because I wasn't born yet!"

"Hey, so should you call me brother?" Lu Xuan looked at him with his big eyes blinking.

"How can an older brother be shorter than a younger brother? Look, I'm much taller than you. I'm the older brother." Lu Can turned his head away uncomfortably.

In terms of age, Lu Xuan is indeed the older brother.

But he looked like he was only three or four years old, so he couldn't call me brother.

"I think you are wrong." Lu Xuan shook his head.

"Ninth sister is taller than eighth sister, but she still has to call eighth sister 'sister'."

Lu Li was amused by his series of sisters.

Hearing her laughter, Lu Xuan turned his head and looked over: "Sister Nine, do you think I am right?"

"Ninth sister, he has called me brother for so many years, so I am the brother, right?" Lu Can also looked at Lu Li, hoping that she would stand up and uphold justice.

Lu Li: ...

These two guys were arguing, how come the anger ended up getting on her?

She shouldn't have laughed out loud just now.

"Oh, let me see where I am and where to eat roasted whole lamb tonight."

Lu Li opened the door, jumped out of the carriage, and threw her two younger brothers out.

When Lu Xuan heard about roasted whole lamb, he immediately forgot about the argument and followed after him.

"I know, I know. Let's go to Meng County. The lamb there is the most delicious."

Suddenly, Lu Can was the only one left in the carriage.

Being interrupted by Lu Xuan, the depression and sorrow that had previously gathered in my heart suddenly dissipated.

Birth, aging, sickness and death are part of human nature.

There is no need to worry about things that have not happened yet.

Lu Canxiang figured it out and a brilliant smile appeared on his face. He began to ask Lu Li where she went to eat roasted whole lamb.

In the end, the group went to Meng County.

They found a restaurant that specialized in lamb, planning to eat a whole roasted lamb and drink lamb soup.

"Is there a private room?"

Qin Xiao led the way with the silver.

"I'm sorry, sir. We only do business with our neighbors. We do small business and don't have private rooms." The boss answered while slaughtering the sheep.

"It's okay, just sit in the courtyard." Lu Li didn't care about the simple environment, as long as the food was delicious.

This is a place recommended by locals.

"Okay, Ahua, quickly ask the guests to sit down." The boss turned around and instructed his wife.

"Okay, distinguished guests, please follow me." The proprietress wiped her hands on her apron and smiled as she invited everyone to sit in the back.

Roasting a whole lamb takes time, so Lu Li and the others drank a bowl of lamb soup first, then sat down to peel peanuts and melon seeds and chat.

It is only the beginning of September now, and after drinking a bowl of hot mutton soup, everyone feels warmed up.

Lu Xuan and Lu Can were discussing where to go tomorrow, but Lu Li's attention was drawn to what the people at the next table were talking about.

"How did the eldest son of the Ling family die? The government has not yet found the real murderer."

"Who knows? He just drank some wine and died like that."

"Pah, I heard from the coroner that he didn't die from drinking."

"How did he die?"

"I don't know. If I knew, I would have been the county magistrate."

"According to the coroner, there were no injuries on Young Master Ling's body, and he didn't die of poisoning, but he died like this. How strange, how strange."

Hearing them say this, Lu Li immediately smelled the scent of a big melon.

She opened the melon-eating system without hesitation.
